about

After the Fire. In 1244 a great fire burned down most of the town. In those days of wattle and clay thatched housing this was a regular hazard. Fortunately deaths were avoided, and the fire did the town a service by clearing away insanitary dwellings. Stone-built housing was a lot safer!

lyrics

AFTER THE FIRE
We look to the past in despair
We’ve scattered those days to the breeze
The fire took the little we had for its own
And left nothing for us to repair
Nothing but ashes and sad memories

Our present it is difficult now
We’re living from day to new day
But the hens they still peck and the pigs snuffle on
We need to remind ourselves how
We’re lucky we’re still here to love and to pray

All that was rotten is now gone
The fire took the dirt and disease
Maybe it cleansed us of all of our sins
Maybe we have our new dawn
Here is a chance we must reach out and seize

Now the future is where we belong
And we hope that it shines good and bright
We‘ll go to the forest to chop us the wood
And we’ll build us a house that is strong
Where we’ll kiss all the children of our children goodnight
